got my logbook.. yaaaayy! But want to find out if I have racked up any traffic fines
So happy to get it through the post. Even though I've been driivng for 3 weeks, to have a piece of paper with you name on saying you're the registered keeper makes it so official!!

Though this is the first time I'm driving after 5 years of passing, and I forgot some of the basic rules, also the nervousness has made me miss some of the one way traffic signs.

I vaguely rememebr being flashed once, but not sure if it was me or someone else.

The yellow criss cross (no stopping) box on more than one occasion, and I'm not sure if I have racked up a fine for that.

I'm not sure if you get fined for going down a one way, but if you do then I may have got a ticket (we got CCTV like crazy around here).

So is there any way I can find out whether I have racked up these fines while the DVLA had the previous owners details on their system.

I'm aware that if you pay early you get a discount, but if you delay it could double. So I'm worried that the fines may have been sent to the previous owner and by the time they old owner sends the tickets back and says "I was not the owner when these violations happend" and then the parking control resends the tickets to me. I might have missed the early bird discount period.

Looks like blatant trolling, especially reading the follow-up posts.

The worst thing is, I know a fair few people who are exactly like that. Usually young girls in brand new Minis paid for by mummy and daddy.

I noticed someone mentioned "troll" in that thread, how long before they get the ban hammer?
